Film

Julien Perrot, 16 years old, shows up at his school totally naked. Yet no one seems to notice anything wrong about him especially that a total solar eclipse is about to occur and everybody’s excitement is rising to its height. People in classes are waiting for the bell to ring to go down to the schoolyard.

Le cas Perrot portrays the dream world in a realistic way. It features amateur teens, in a documentary style, with a view to making dream like fantasy look real. The film is written and directed consistently with our reasoning during sleep.
